/dev/hda is the first disk. to boot off of /dev/sda you need to probably reconfigure your BIOS or something to do it, or install LILO to the MBR on /dev/hda. i had a similar configuration on a BP6, boot drive was SCSI but i had IDE and LILO gave the same message, but i had the bios configured to boot from the scsi so there was no trouble. nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
